Luke 22:40-53

40When he reached the place, he told them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”

41Then he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, knelt down, and began to pray,

42“Father, if you are willing, take this cup away from me — nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

43Then an angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

44Being in anguish, he prayed more fervently, and his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.

45When he got up from prayer and came to the disciples, he found them sleeping, exhausted from their grief.

46“Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray, so that you won’t fall into temptation.”

47While he was still speaking, suddenly a mob came, and one of the Twelve named Judas was leading them. He came near Jesus to kiss him,

48but Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

49When those around him saw what was going to happen, they asked, “Lord, should we strike with the sword?”

50Then one of them struck the high priest’s servant and cut off his right ear.

51But Jesus responded, “No more of this!” And touching his ear, he healed him.

52Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple police, and the elders who had come for him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as if I were a criminal?

53Every day while I was with you in the temple, you never laid a hand on me. But this is your hour — and the dominion of darkness.”
